Another way to take money out of people's pockets increase vehicle registration fees instead of more tolls(at least in NH)  http://www.fosters.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090617/GJNEWS_01/706179970/-1/FOSNEWS

I don't really understand the American hatred against taxes. Ofcourse, you don't want the excessive taxing they have over here in Europe, but you also don't want your transportation system to fall apart. At least it stays within the budget of transportation, and not some other branch of the NH government.

Too many conservatives.

eh, it's not taxes being used for road maintenance that raise the ire of the average taxpayer.  it's bigger projects, like Iraq maintenance and geezer maintenance that are far more hated.

I just read the article, it sucks that the fees are going up,But try this on for size,$200.00 to register an average car for 2 years.That is what we pay in Nova Scotia Canada.
